  1. Should have won the skills if his teammates had been better. Barely losing to Dame in the 3 is nothing to hang your head about.
  2. Hit me up when any of these guys make the finals. Jokic, Giannis, Lebron, Curry are the HOF'rs in the league. Everyone just in the chase right now.
  3. Dang. Celtics are going to get a cake walk to finals this year with all the injuries. I hope they get swept.
  4. So Garry Bird is the league leader in three point percentage. Do you want him on the team next year?
  5. No subs in OT is the dumbest unwritten coaching rule there is. I guess it always 'works' for one of the teams.
  6. Not a lot of positives on this one.
  7. So this is where it doesn't make any sense to me. If he goes 6-6 over the next 3 games he won't qualify despite perhaps having the best % in the league. But if he goes 7-14 he'll qualify?
  8. Thank you. I can believe it. Folks only remember when someone is hot and taken out and then there's a loss. No one remembers if there's a win and no one remembers when someone is hot and left in and goes cold. No one remembers when a guy is hot subbed out and the team goes on a bigger run. The Malachi-games are blue moon type events that happen on terrible teams. I'd also say that Quin is definitely rigid but there are examples of him sticking with guys who are doing well on the court. So i don't think it's cause for alarm yet.
  9. They could fix the lottery by making the odds a formula of your last three seasons record. If someone really wants to tank three seasons then go for it but otherwise i think it would resolve a lot of tanking if a single season tank doesn't drastically improve your odds.
  10. It's been proven though that number of pro games on the body means more than age and Luka has as many games on him as any at his age. He's still got a scary amount of 'prime' left in him but not sure it's going to be 10 years.
  11. They did a really good job with the format. My inclination would have been to have 9&10 play a game and then the winner play #8 for the 8th seed and leave #7 out of it. But as you point out the current format keeps more teams engaged at the end of the year.
  12. It's crazy how Mookie was hitting so many threes in an era where scores were often under 100 points a game and at the same time being all defense and steals leader.
  13. Maybe i'm just being dumb but why is it made 3s vs attempted that qualify you for the leaderboard?
  14. No doubt. there's just been so much unstable-ness about this season. 13 games without Trae isn't something I'm going to base my franchise decisions on.
  15. Wow. I like Clifford and he has been a really good coach in this league. I was shocked to learn he's only 5 years older that Quin though.
  16. We've won 13 games without Trae and half of those wins were against tanking teams or teams missing their top players. So based on those 13 games we're going to make the judgement that the team is better without Trae? Let's get real here.
  17. But the record is not over .500 when Jalen is out. That's the point.
  18. I'll admit to being critical of Garrison a lot but it's pretty obvious why he is playing. Now that things have regressed to the mean it exposes that we are a very average 3 point shooting team. These are the top 4 who also happen to be 4 of the best teams in the league Boston has 4 guys >40% and 6 guys shooting better than Bogi from 3.
